That's unfortunate. I can't just mount my array there as it is basically my NAS that use to store all of my media. It sounds like I will have to go without pooling if I want to back up to another location other than /var/lib/backuppc thanks to everyone who responded On Thu, Feb 12, 2009 at 7:43

Re: [BackupPC-users] When will backuppc begin pooling?

yes. it is different than the install directory. I configured backuppc to use my RAID 6 array to store the backups, not the system drive. The full and incremental backups work fine. It just looks like the links aren't being made properly. On Thu, Feb 12, 2009 at 7:24 PM, Les Mikesell wrote:

Thank you so much for your very informative response. When I run the command: perldoc IO::Dirent, i get "No documentation found for "IO::Dirent"" so it seems it is not installed? On Thu, Feb 12, 2009 at 3:41 PM, Chris Robertson wrote: > Brian Woodworth wrote: > > Yes, I have complete backups.

Yes, I have complete backups. My problem appears to be a known bug as stated earlier in the thread. Craig was kind enough to post a solution, but the problem is I don't know how to go about following his instructions. thanks for the response On Thu, Feb 12, 2009 at 2:56 PM, Tino Schwarze wrote:

I would really like to get the pooling to work. Do i need to install IO::Dirent first? If so, how do I do that? I looked around a bit and could not really find much about it. I am running Ubuntu Server 8.10. On Thu, Jan 29, 2009 at 11:27 PM, Craig Barratt < cbarr...@users.sourceforge.net> wrot
